illustrative Mathematics
Students in Mrs. Cook's mathematics class will use the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum adopted by Scholar Academy beginning in August 2022. Illustrative Mathematics goes beyond the procedural mathematics of past programs to truly delve into the "why" of mathematics and engages students in problem-solving based tasks structured to increase student participation, interaction, and achievement.
UNIt 1: adding, subtracting, and working with data
Students represent and solve story problems within 20 through the context of picture and bar graphs that represent categorical data. Students build toward fluency with addition and subtraction.
Homework
Maria Montessori said, "Play is the work of the child."
Homework in Mrs. Cook's math class will be the exception and not the rule. I expect students in the advanced math class to come prepared and ready to contribute in our classroom. If a student needs extra practice to fulfill that expectation, I will send it home with them. In addition, if a student falls behind, I will expect them to complete their work at home and bring it to class as soon as possible.
